A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I'm looking for a google calendar replacement that isn't nextcloud, has a descent mobile app with widgets, and authentication built in. I've seen plenty of recommendations via search but i'd like to hear what you personally use and what you like about it.

I use Baikal, but it seems Nextcloud is a popular solution.

Baikal is lean and great. I use it and sync to my Thunderbird (using the TbSync extension) and Android phone (using DAVx⁵).

+1 on Baikal, way better than Nextcloud except for invites. There are some details that don't work as expected with inviting people and changing invites afterwards.

Indeed it's not really invites-friendly. But what I like is that it's really light, and avoid cluttering my Nextcloud. My Nextcloud is just for files, syncing and sharing them. That's all, and that avoids a lot of headaches when backuping for instance.
